Snorkeling in St Lucia is best under the Pitons, where the Anse Chastanet reef drops off a few metres from the beach, and most of the 10 trips on this page reach it by boat from Soufrière or on a sail from the north. Each was picked by hand after we read every listing and kept only operators rated 4.5★ or higher. The cheapest is a snorkel stop built into a sightseeing cruise from €75 per person; the most expensive are private boats to Soufrière with snorkel gear and a beach stop, and the scuba dives for certified divers.
Snorkel gear is included on every listing, but the reef is reached by swimming from the boat, so confident swimmers only. Snuba lets you breathe from a surface line without a certification and runs in small groups at set times. Scuba trips need a certification card for the two tank dives, and discover scuba sessions do not certify you. Boats from the north spend two hours each way on the water.
